Stress Pointson July 4, 2003

The july 4 Stress Points are similar to the July 2 Stress Points. The difference is the up-tick in quakes beyond the four-per-day Atlantic Rift key placement points,
such that Global Quakes are now occurring between and in addition to these times. N. American Plate and the Eurasian Plate abutt each other on a line going from
Iceland to the Kamchatka Penninsula, but where they show stress during plate adjustments little movement occurs. Adjustments are made in weak points on the
borders of these two giant plates: The SE United States, the plate lob encompassing Indonesia, and the Philippine Plate where deep ocean trenches can be
collapsed. The uncharted mid-Pacific is not exempt, showing stress from Wake Island strs ehivh has been shaky, pushing plates into the Antartic. As the Atlantic
Rift separates, the African Rift is free to move east, creating tension in Kenya. The Antartica Plate reacts to the spreading Atlantic Rift by lifting there, to relieve the
pressure coming from the squeeze on the Pacific Plate.
